Everyday Science / Branch of Science — Multiple-choice practice

  1. A. Temperature
  2. B. Substrate concentration
  3. C. Enzyme concentration
  4. D. pH

Correct answer

Substrate concentration

Explanation

Explanation The x-axis of the graph likely shows Substrate concentration. Many enzyme-related graphs depict the relationship between substrate concentration and reaction rate. The substrate concentration is typically plotted on the x-axis, as it's the independent variable being manipulated to observe its effect on the enzyme activity. Increasing substrate concentration generally leads to an increased reaction r ate until the enzyme becomes saturated.
